Our teachers

Hi everyone,

How are you?
This's Masa.

How's Japanese studying going?

Today, I would like to share with you some introductory information about us teachers :)

Asao platform is supported by a few teachers, as you know.

Some of you are very new to our community so just to explain to you the milestones of how we got to where we are today :)

When we first started to teach in 2014, while the community was still relatively small, all our lessons in person and online were only taught by me, Aiko sensei, Taito sensei, Akiko sensei and Yuka sensei.

Today, we call ourselves Top Teachers as we believe that we contributed the most to establish the community.
We continue to work closely together in and out of lessons to maintain the day to day operation.
The lessons with those us are now called Main Operation among all the Asao teachers.

A few years ago, we decided to welcome new teachers so we started to focus on training them. We also wanted to increase interaction among learners at the same time. So, we came up with the idea of starting a new community on Discord https://discord.gg/t6NkjmqUE7

We welcome and train new teachers regularly on Discord today :)

Those who are still on training are called Trainee Teachers and who have completed their training and passed an interview are called Certified Teachers. This operation is now called Discord Operation among us.

As time passed, as Certified Teachers gain more and more teaching experience and confidence, we feel that the difference between the two operations are becoming smaller, which is, by the way, for me a fantastic progress!
I personally like to merge them in the future :)

Please remember that even if you started on Discord, you are always very welcome to try lessons with Top Teachers anytime and vice versa.

What is important for us is always to maximise your satisfaction in each lesson :)

So, that's it, some food for thought for today!

Masa
